For Ford, the Taurus name equals hope… and sales. The new generation, which reflects the preceding ones (1986 – 2006), should give Ford a boost. Two 3.5-litre V6 engines power the Taurus.

Whichever engine and power train (front or all-wheel drive) are chosen, each Taurus comes with a six-speed automatic transmission.
